Ryumon Waterfall Tours

Experience the very relaxing Japanese custom of communal bathing in a hot spring onsen at the foot of Mount Yufu.

Best known for his covers of the Saturday Evening Post, a great American illustrator is the subject of this small but enthusiastic collection in Japan.

Mind-bending optical illusions offer opportunities for photos, special events and good fun on rainy days right off Yufuin’s main tourist street.

Examples of some of the world’s best-known sports cars appear alongside motorcycles, a bus and even a few small planes in this private collection.

Soft light streaming through colored windows suggests the north of England, but this museum is in the thoroughly Japanese neighborhood of Yufuin.

Japan of the 1950s is reproduced in remarkable detail in a museum celebrating the daily life of a recently passed era.
